Final Fantasy 13, the day has finally come
Carnivus:
It's 60$ here as well,though only at "private retailers".In the store,it's 100$.I thought to buy it after a while,maybe when it reaches Platinum,which shouldn't take long considering 5m units have been shipped.
We don't have a Gamestop/Bestbuy in Romania.

maybe you should try ordering it from the uk. idk for me living in austria it is really worth it - at least if you make an order with some friends (to reduce the shipping costs..). i would have to pay 55€ (~75$) for ff13 if i buy it here or ~35€ (~48$) if i order it from the uk..

I have two complaints... Vanille's voice acting... and the fact you get next to NO back story.

I have only played for a few hours but they have given some of the back story at a latter part of the game. Maybe they will keep giving it a little bit at a time as the game progress'. Also if you read the entries in the datacom thing there is alot of info about stuff that has happened there (it also updates as story goes on with more backstory info). Combat gameplay kinda reminds me of persona 3 for those of you that have played it where you only control the main toon and the others are controled by ai based on what you select as there tactic. Its a little different than I expected but so far it has worked out pretty good. Im so glad I own a ps3 though to play this on I would not want to have to play it on a 360.

well, the backstory I was looking for, and its not even in the Datalogs, is "WHY" Sanctum and Pulse are/were at war... WHY l'Cie are "evil", I am in chapter 7 atm in Hope's house with his father, and none of this has been relayed information. So far the only reason I know why l'Cie are being hunted is because Sanctum wants them to be... but there is no WHY behind it, no hints of fear, or propaganda that l'Cie are demons or something... I mean, Sanctum has Fal'Cie too... Sanctum's Fal'Cie creates l'Cie as well, why are all l'Cie deemed to be Pulse's agents of doom?
What sparked the war between Pulse and Sanctum? What reason do these factions have to fight one another?
The only thing I have "accepted" about this is that, like in a lot of Japanese stories, things are just constants... there is no WHY... there just IS. Which I can accept that, but... I still would like to know more... kinda flushing out the environment ya know?
But, in the games defense of what im complaining about... its not NEEDED... the story is progressing perfectly fine, and from what ive seen/played through I understand what is going on with the characters I am playing, and their place in the world. I may not understand the entire big picture with the elements missing that I listed above, but hey... its a game about a group of people on an adventure to survive and save Coccoon and Serah, so far the story has done an excellent job of that.

Just curious, but where are you ordering it from?
forsaken:
I've played for like 3 hours now and am in Chapter 2 and so far I'm really enjoying where it's headed :)
I'm liking the Paradigm system. Graphics are astounding. The amount of prerendered footage surpasses expectations (25GB BluRay ftw) and I'm seriously liking Lightning for not being a lame character. Snow's cool, Hope is an Emo, Vanille is st00pid as shit and Sazh is a bit boring. Looking forward to the sassy Aussie Fang.
So far I'm enjoying myself, I'm a big fan of the series and I did in fact enjoy FFXII. I'm liking the combat system but the Character Development (Chrysantium?) still needs some work. Hopefully that gets more interesting as the game progresses...
